Dear community,
I had ubuntu 12.04.01 and did a distribution upgrade to 12.10 through unity, but it stalled somewhere (the machine was frozen), so I continued with # apt-get dist-upgrade after a restart. The problem is that I get:
# apt-get dist-upgrade

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these.

E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
The other possible solution to my problem was to edit (http://www.backtrack-linux.org/forums/showthread.php?t=40978) /usr/src/nvidia-current-*/nv.c --- I *think* I tried it as described on the link for the folders nvidia-310.19
nvidia-current-295.40
nvidia-current-updates-304.43
that reside in my /usr/src but this didn't work either.
Any more suggestions, please?

I had ubuntu 12.04.01 and did a distribution upgrade to 12.10 through unity, but it stalled somewhere (the machine was frozen), so I continued with # apt-get dist-upgrade after a restart. The problem is that I get:
# apt-get dist-upgrade

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these.

E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
The other possible solution to my problem was to edit (http://www.backtrack-linux.org/forums/showthread.php?t=40978) /usr/src/nvidia-current-*/nv.c --- I *think* I tried it as described on the link for the folders nvidia-310.19
nvidia-current-295.40
nvidia-current-updates-304.43
that reside in my /usr/src but this didn't work either.
Any more suggestions, please?
